How's Your Day? Archives

Okay...

So I go to use my 1912 ER today. It's shiny, perfect, tight, beautiful. I put a blade in it, and the top of the head rattles. I take out the blade and it's as tight as it could be. Put blade back in. Rattle. Repeat. Finally shake my head and give up, resorting to a tried and true 1912 GEM.

I'm so confused... think002:think002

 

Check to make sure the hinges are tight.. it could be that one is slipping off it's post when the blade is in. best I can describe it sorry.

That makes sense, Fuzzy. Thanks! I'll have a little look see...

 

Okay, now I see what's up. The thick part of the blade is contacting the spring, so the spring can't push the head all the way down. It's almost like it was made for those SE blades with two edges (and no thick side). It actually holds the blade tight and I'm pretty sure it would shave well. The rattle is just annoying. Maybe I'll pull the thick part off a blade and see how it fits then. Hmmm...:think002

 

that is strange.. mine is just like the gem;s

 

Hoodies were never this cool when I was a knee-biter.

So that's what happened to my missing installation disk!
Very Kewl!

Brilliant!


Oh and now that it is lunchtime... Morning Everyone!

 

I believe I've got my costume ready. I added the finishing touches to the shirt, lacing the collar with leather thread.

 

Happy .5 K Doug, and Yay! I passed the 1 mile mark yesterday...

Costume... hmmm... I think I will be going around as the terminally annoyed (but well shaven) person who is escorting a hooligan...

 

Ooh, .5k. Excellent. It shouldn't have taken me this long, but I don't get on here much. For some reason the site doesn't work well at home and I rarely have time to get on at work. So...

 

it's still not working?

Oh, yeah. I'll do it at home tonight. It works sometimes and not at all others. I've only recently had enough time to worry about it. But heck, if my friends are here now I guess I need to be here more to keep up, eh? :happy088

 

Next time I see a rusty razor at the local junque shop for a nickel, I might just have to give this a shot.

 

don't know why that was funny to me, but it was
